Her son's name is Josh and she wishes him 'full of Josh' - that's such a cute pun! 😄 Also, glad she's coming back to Bollywood. We need more graceful actors like her who have substance. Hope she gets good roles.
Great achievement for Josh, but honestly, I find it a bit odd how some Indian celebrities make such a big deal about their kids studying abroad. There are plenty of excellent universities in India too. Just saying.
Remember watching 'Hero' and 'Ghayal' as a kid! Meenakshi was such a talented dancer and actress. It's amazing she's returning to Mumbai after 30 years. That takes courage! Wishing her all the best for her comeback. 🇮🇳
As someone who also moved abroad for family, I totally understand Meenakshi's journey. Balancing two cultures is not easy. Congrats to Josh and best wishes to her for her Bollywood return! Hope she gets scripts that do justice to her talent.
It's inspiring that even after 30 years, she wants to restart her acting career. That shows true passion for one's craft. Also, beautiful message to her son - 'proud of the person you've become' goes beyond just academics. 👏
